If you love Adele's look, and would like to copy her sexy sophistication, there are several ways of updating your style. Dark eye make up and carefully dishevelled hair are the order of the day. Outfits should be subtle and should not display too much flesh. Even if you can't sing like Adele, her sex appeal can be yours!

Adele's hair is coloured a golden blonde that is very natural looking. To get this look, go to a professional hairdresser. You don't want the yellow dried out strands that can accompany a home dye job. This look relies on your hair being freshly washed, blow dried and exhibiting shine. If you can't achieve the kind of shine you want naturally, there are many products on the market that can help you to create it. You can also employ some techniques at home, such as making your final rinse with cold water. This seals the cuticle of your hair, allowing maximum shine.

The soulful icon wears her hair in a carefully dishevelled up do. It has 60s style height at the crown, and frames her face. A few artfully created strands completes her look. This might appear relatively carefree, but spending time on getting this stylish look right will allow you to emanate glamorous sophistication.

Charcoal smudged lids are highlighted by black eye liner and heavy dark lashes. Apply your eye shadow in layers to build up to dramatic impact, and line your eyes with a curved finish at the edges. False eyelashes complete the look. You can buy strips of false eyelashes, but individual ones will look more natural and create more of a definitive look. They might be fiddly, but, with a bit of practice, you'll be a smoking siren in no time! Pale lips and creamy skin emphasise the iconic vintage look, and draw attention to the eyes. Brows should be reasonably thick, no pencil thin creations here, and shaped with a subtle arch. Groom and maintain your brows with a brow brush and pencil in a shade to complement your skin tone and hair colour.

Adele wears a lot of black, which is never out of fashion. She favours A lines and scoop necks that are fitted but do not expose cleveage or flesh. For accessories, simple jewellery is key to this look. Plain small silver hoop earrings add a sophisticated yet approachable style, and help to emphasise Adele's beautiful skin.
